The slap Buffy gives Dawn in Forever was well deserved. She's whining about Buffy pushing her away after Joyce died, but there was nothing stopping her from taking 30 seconds to ask how her sister is.

I never liked Xander. There, I said it. I never forgave him for lying in the finale of season 2.

It's such a small thing to think about, but I wonder if anyone ever went back to Cordy's apartment to keep Phantom Dennis up to date on what was happening with her.

Anya's monologue in "The Body" is annoying and the worst part of the episode.

If Buffy really loved Angel so much, why was her first thought when he needed the blood of a Slayer to survive, "I'll put him in further jeopardy so I can sacrifice Faith," instead of just doing it herself?

[buffyconfessions]

It's such a simple moment, but I like that Buffy and Spike don't need to actually talk in Wrecked to communicate that he should get Dawn to the hospital. It's also a nice nod to his promise to take care of her "until the end of the world."

Instead of Willow, I kinda wish we'd gotten to see how far Xander would've gone in order to be super. It seems almost unrealistic that years of being called "average" never got to him.

I loved Riley. I mean, I LOVED Riley. I think the evolution of that relationship, the first kiss scene, the sex, was emotional, evocative and passionate. I loved the moral complexity they put his character through. I desperately wanted her to end up with him and to this day, I’m so sad she didn’t.

I hate it when Willow tells Tara she’s nothing special, but I can also see why she thinks that. Xander never fully reciprocated her feelings and then Oz leaves her. To make matters worse, all of that happens while seemingly every other guy in Sunnydale has a crush on her best friend.

Rewatching "Fredless" makes it clear that Wesley wasn't lying when he told Fred he's loved her since he's known her. Given that she's a genius, I don't know how she didn't realize it sooner. Especially since everyone around them had figured out pretty quickly.

[buffyconfessions]

Even though I love Willow and Oz together, I'm kinda glad they broke up before S6. If he had been the one to die instead of Tara, I would've been way more upset than I already was.

Everyone gives season 6 grief for being bad but if I'm being honest, I think season 7 was worse. It's the only time in BTVS history that I was actually rooting for the villain to win.

Do you want me to answer that or shall I just glare?

Characters: Buffy “the Vampire Slayer” Summers

Strong is fighting! It’s hard, and it’s painful, and it’s every day. It’s what we have to do.

[buffyconfessions]

I sincerely never got the appeal of Spike. There has to be some appeal there because even leaving aside the weirdly intense fandom the showrunners kept writing him into things, but for me, he’s just sort of... there. That sure is a character on a show I guess?

[buffyconfessions]

People always talk about how bad Buffy was treated in S7, but what about Willow? Her "friends" gang up on her and change their minds about whether or not they want her to do magic in every episode.
